The leader of "Vazrazhdane" Kostadin Kostadinov told Bulgaria ON AIR that Donald Trump's Peace Council made sense at the beginning of this year around the conflict in Gaza, but is now meaningless and empty of content.
"There was a reason for its creation. Now the war in Iran is escalating and there is talk that it could escalate into a land war. If this happens, we risk finding ourselves in a situation of global conflict," he emphasized in the program "Denyat ON AIR".
Why Israel is the biggest threat
"The biggest threat to world peace is Israel. It possesses nuclear weapons and would not hesitate to use them against Iran if it sees that it is losing the war. And right now, Israel is losing the war and is waging it with state terrorism. They are killing children, statesmen...", commented Kostadinov.
The candidate for MP noted that there are many breaches that Iran's national security has suffered with recruited agents.
What are the risks facing Bulgaria?
"A part of the NATO countries said that they would not support the US categorically. However, Romania said that it would provide its bases. One base is located 37 km from the Bulgarian border. It is so large - about 15 km long. We have every reason to be worried. Romania has already been officially warned by Iran," Kostadinov pointed out.
According to him, we are currently seeing the collapse of NATO.
"NATO is over, it has collapsed. An allied country asks for help, the countries say "no". NATO members, when there needs to be a real conflict and there is a possibility of a retaliatory strike, tremble with fear," the leader of "Vazrazhdane" also said.
According to him, there are currently more foreign soldiers in the capital of Bulgaria than Bulgarian ones.
"One of the planes that was at the airport in Sofia was shot down by the Iranians. It is not a problem to bring others. They will not be moved to Romania. We were told that they would stay until May 17 or 19, but their stay could be extended," the politician said.
The future of NATO - what to expect
Kostadinov pointed out that all American bases in the Persian Gulf region have been burned to the ground, they do not exist. Equipment worth billions of dollars is in dust, he emphasized.
NATO is a defensive, not an offensive alliance, and Trump cannot expect to receive help from all countries if he attacks, the interlocutor was categorical.
"Seeing that NATO is currently falling apart and that it cannot even guarantee its own security, what is Bulgaria doing in NATO... We must evacuate and immediately begin to restore our national security on our own. NATO poses a great risk to our national security," Kostadinov warns.
Rising prices in our country
"The problems with electricity prices, fuel and soaring bank interest rates are huge. You can't have one bank interest rate in Bulgaria and another in Germany. The ECB is gradually starting to raise interest rates," the guest commented.
"Our government can reduce electricity prices with an elegant move - we stop paying for carbon emissions. The price of electricity becomes cheaper by 40 percent with this move alone. I have a way. Yesterday, the CEC decided that it will not implement an EU regulation that obliges all parties to declare who gives the money, where it comes from, who the sponsor is. Regulations have a status above the laws in Bulgaria," explained Kostadinov.
According to him, the same applies to the price of gasoline - "we are stopping the sanctions against Russia."
"When cheap oil comes, not only will the price fall, we can even export it", noted Kostadinov.
Will "Vazrazhdane" partner with Radev and "Progressive Bulgaria"
"The program of "Progressive Bulgaria" is that of an ultra-liberal and far-right formation that is ultra-Euro-Atlantic. Our voters cannot possibly approve such cooperation," said Kostadinov.
"We only see Euro-Atlantic propaganda clichés. "PG is a shortened version of PP-DB," concluded the leader of "Vazrazhdane".
